Elder Scott McMillan

Our 3 month break from rain has come to an end this week and I was reunited with my trusty rain jacket. Overall the weather hasn't been too bad. Its just been drizzling a little bit which probably signifies summer is ending. Our friend Eddy got baptized this week!! He is super cool. Moved here 6 months ago from the Dominican Republic. Hes been coming to church alone and brings his family sometimes. He's a Goat. We're going to baptize his sister this Saturday too so that is going to be awesome. We are excited for them and their desire they have to follow the Savior. Eddys stepdad owns a Bakery and always giving us bread, cakes and other stuff. So now we pretty much get free donuts everyday. And they are super good desserts. I've probably gained a couple pounds but its ok because we are lowkey on the morning workout grind. We've been doing a lot of pull ups, dips, and a lot of jump rope. This week we might have to go to Pto. Montt but still not certain. Its goin...

Whats poppin. So to explain the title, we had cambios and now I'm with the only Polynesian in the mission. His names Elder Malu and hes lowkey a GOAT. He's going to play football for BYU after the mission. Go Cougs. Speaking of Cougs, congrats to lil bro for becoming the next Cougar in the McMillan casa. The 2 D1 athletes in the mission are bout to go crazy in our workouts. It's a new life goal to get invited to the Tongan Feast when I get back to Provo. I gotta prove that I can put down a respectable amount of food so we'll see. We had an interesting week. I spent the whole day in the bus terminal on Tuesday because I had to wait for missionarys to come and go during transfers. We had some pretty big changes in the Zone and entire mission. Only a few companionships remained the same in the mission. Then I went out with the LZs of the Valdivia zone because Elder Malu wasnt going to get to the terminal until 8pm. So I stayed in the terminal from 9Am-5PM then I we...

We just got transfer news yesterday. My companion is going down to the end of the world. Our two transfers together were awesome and now he's going to Punta Arenas and is super excited. I'm staying in the mission's smallest sector another cambio!! Let's goooo. It's actually going to be hype. We're going to have another baptism in 2 weeks. And we have other friends who want to keep learning which is awesome. My new comp is coming up from Coyhaique so he won't be here until 9pm tommorrow. It's going to be a lit cambio.  We had someone send us a text message that she wanted to be baptized which doesn't really happen that often...Like ever. So that was something pretty cool that happened. I did an intercambio with a Venezuelan Elder in our zone. We finished the day by making some fire Arepas which is always a great way to end a day.  Today I bought another copy of the card game that me and Elder Benson always play. I'm hoping my new companion w...

T hanks everybody for the birthday wishes! It ended up being a pretty good birthday. I was in an intercambio with the CCM Goat, Elder Thompson. He lived in the same house as me and it was fun to work together.  We went to his sector which ended up being a pretty good day. He is in one of the best sectors in our area. It was a good change to be out of the sector for a little bit.  Had to go on my monthly side quest to Pto. Montt It was actually pretty lit because I bought some of my favorite yerba. For anyone wondering the best Yerba is Barbacoa.  It was just a really long day because we ended up spending like 7 hours on a bus for a conference that was only 6 hours long. So it was a lot of bus time jugo but it was pretty good. Got home and was totally dead but it was pretty lit. We had to figure out what we want to talk about at zone conference so we can help out the mission.  Then the next day we had the baptism of our friend Cecila. She had a bunch of family that ar...
